Ed Mezvinsky actually fell for a Nigerian scam. I believe it was the black money scam. Where the scammers tell the sap that they have millions of dollars that have black ink on the bills, and they can wash them off, they just need the idiot to give them money for the chemicals. Greedy, because even if it was real, the money had to be the stolen, Idiotic because why would they pick this person to be able to make millions of dollars, when they have the chemicals.
The BEST of the BEST Nigerian scams was the setup that promised to help people get their lost money back.
For a fee, of course.....
Talk about a rabbit hole.
